hey hey. I think my trolling was effective. My REAL opinion on the SR vs. KA debate is simply do whatever you please. It's your car, money, and time. I'm pretty sure I've voiced this same opinion all over the internet. I can't find the tongue smiley.

This is a very valid point.

The engine in the rally car will be absolutely done after this season. I have been going over and over different options. I would love to do an NA RB or maybe a single cam VG, but a CA isnt out of my mind. I wanted to stay away from turbos as they add heat, and complication, but the CA is pretty cheap.

I think people over look the CA because of its age. It's an old motor and most people want something they can just drop in without rebuilding.

Also, it's tiny. And many want a smoother powerband.....

Not saying they aren't good engines though. Many have a had great results with them.
